2. Fear.
Another curse they have to endure in this life is constantly living in fear, because they are so fake and two-faced, there is always the chance that they may be exposed or someone would actually face up to them and make them pay.

Some Narcissists use humour to hide their fears, gain Narcissistic Supply and hurt others. I covered how some Narcissists use humour, but you can be sure it is no laughing matter. Everyone has certain fears but a Narcissist mind is crippled by fear.
